Thank you. I've reported my post. Hopefully should be moved over soon?

Thank you for telling me. I'll reupload the images. Can I move the post or do I have to delete and repost?

Scenario has now been released. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3336049810

This is just an example. I needed to fully customise the loadouts of the units I spawned for the scenario I built. You can take the concept and customise how you like. Chop and change it to make it as easy or as specific as you want.

Hi Justin, Your on the right lines in some bits. Your just missing some elements of the script though. I have a little experience with loadout scripts. Happy to share an example. Loadout.sqf _unit = _this select 0; _LoadoutBasic = { _unit = _this select 0; removeAllWeapons _unit; removeAllItems _unit; removeAllAssignedItems _unit; removeUniform _unit; removeVest _unit; removeBackpack _unit;

} else { [_unit] spawn _LoadoutElite; }; To call the loadout script put this into the soldier's init field. This can also be used on units spawned via script. Simply swap "this" out with the variable of the unit. [this] execVM "Loadout.sqf"; Your passing the variable of the unit into the script when you execute it which is good. Also you don't need a hashtag just "_unit = _this select 0;" will be okay. I usually put this at the top of the script as it's always worked best for me that way. What this line does it will assign _unit as the variable for the variable that you passed into the script. What your missing is the code that adds the items to the unit. I take it that you may want to remove just the weapon rather than everything the unit has like I've done? Feel free to use and adjust my code. At the bottom of my script you can see I've got commands that add weapons, uniforms and items to the unit which is what I think your missing. Give this is a go and see if it helps. I would recommend reading about global and local variables in arma too. Edit: sorry i missed completely that you want to select a loadout at random. When I'm back later I'll show you how you can do that. Edit 2: I've re-edited the code. I've changed the loadouts into two functions within the same script. There's numerous ways you can go about doing this and you'll likely change your method a dozen times over however this..... should ...... work. Just ammend the code to how you need to. If you only want items and weapons then you can simply delete the other lines and keep the lines that add items and weapons. If your not using ravage I would recommend removing all class names beginning with rvg. I hope this helps.

Possibly, this weekend. All the gameplay systems are finished now. I've optimized performance as much as possible. I'm just looking for music tracks to complement the scenario. Then gotta do some music editing and finish character dialogues (nothing too fancy). Finally a bit of media, showing gameplay and then I'll upload.

Stranded - The Long Road Home The old world as we knew it was gone. With the arrival of the event so too came the new world. Balances shifted and new powers have emerged. Even the dead are now just another part of the grand scheme and you are just a pawn. Another mercenary in another country that's gone to hell. Trying to earn a buck and survive. You came here on a simple mission. To claim the bounties placed on the dead. To help clean up the world and make a few dollars but something changed. The powers that be, once again, have shifted and you are stuck right in the middle. If you want to survive you need to get the hell out of Chernarus. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3336049810 Overview The concept of the mission is simple. You go from A to B. Once you reach B you've managed to escape. How you reach B is up to you. What happens to you on your way to B is not. Plan carefully as every shot you take will attract unwanted attention. Features This scenario features returning elements from my first scenario Stranded along with some additions and improvements. - Vendors - Safe Zones - Random Events - Ambient spawns - Loot Zones - Repeatable jobs. - Dynamic trader group spawning & Medic group - Dynamic camp spawn for traders, doctors and mechanics. - Respawn. Die and you'll start from the beginning of the map again or save scum. It's a game. You choose how to play. - Warfare zones. - Warfare zones change. You'll never know when your about to step onto a battlefield. Sneak through or go around. - AI in warfare zones are given random focus points. Stay out of their way, or don't. - Cause too much trouble in a warfare zone and squads will be sent to hunt you down. You've been warned. Ravage Features - Dynamic spawning zeds - Hunger, thirst and radiation - Ravage items (Raditation removed as it's a bit buggy) Gameplay Modes Story - In story mode you must find out where the last evac point is and try to reach it to escape. You'll start with minimal gear, at the refugee outpost and when you die you have to start from refugee outpost again. Sandbox - In sandbox mode you can do whatever you like whenever you like. Jump in for some quick survival gameplay or play for an extended session. You'll start with completely random gear in a completely random place and when you die you'll respawn with random gear and in random place. Required Mods & DLC - Apex - Contact - All free DLC - CBA - Ravage - CUP Terrains - Core - CUP Terrains - Maps 2.0 - RHSUSAF - RHSAFRF - RHSGREF - RHSSAF - Project Opfor Reccomended - m3mory mod by haleks if you want to have an extended playthrough. A Note on Performance There is allot more in this scenario than in my previous scenario. Performance will vary depending on PC. Warfare zones will reduce performance because there is more active AI however there's not a crazy amount of AI. Outside of warfare zones performance will be better. The Chernarus map is also more performance intensive than Altis. Performance will also decrease depending on what other mods your running. I have done as much I can though to improve performance and will continue to do so. Credits and Thanks Haleks for providing Ravage.

Nice man, thanks for this. I'll be adding this to my scenario's.

Nice dude! Really glad it helped

The loop checks every second if there is any player inside the safe zone. The player's vehicle will be protected if the player is in it however if the player isn't in it then it can be destroyed in the safe zone. The other limitations with this as well is that the vehicle will stay invulnerable (if a player was in it when the loop fired) if driven outside the safe zone when there is no player in it however if the player gets back in the vehicle outside a safe zone it will become vulnerable again. Using markers makes some things harder as well as easier unfortunately.

Hey, I've had a ponder on this. I'm not very knowledgeable with arma scripting so take this with a grain of salt _Safezones = ["Safezone_1"]; _SafezoneSafety = { private ["_Unit"]; _Unit = _this select 0; _Unit allowdamage false; vehicle _Unit allowDamage false; }; _SafezoneUnSafety = { private ["_Unit"]; _Unit = _this select 0; _Unit allowdamage true; vehicle _Unit allowDamage true; }; while {true} do { { private _unit = _x; { if (_unit inarea _x) then { [_unit] spawn _SafezoneSafety; } else { [_unit] spawn _SafezoneUnSafety; }; } forEach _Safezones; } forEach allplayers; sleep 1; }; I've briefly tested the script and it works (at least in single player should hopefully work in multiplayer too?) In essence you put down a marker called Safezone_1 and add it into the safezones array. Then the loop will check if any players are in the marker and spawn the safezone safety function to make them invulnerable. If the player is in a vehicle then it will make the vehicle invulnerable too. You can add more markers to the array as well. This code may be subject to exploits and will need some indepth testing and tweaking however I think this covers the bare bones. I'm not sure how to make it so that newly spawned players into the safe zone will be invulnerable without making the loop redundant. Could adapt this for use in a trigger however I prefer scripts. I've tried to add in hints however can't figure out how to do it without the hint popping up constantly. Could put down a trigger that displays a hint when entering and exiting the marker? I hope this helps

Updated the scenario to remove the Western Sahara dlc requirement. This was completely unintentional and I left the dlc activated as I was planning on adding in the weapons and clothing and making a separate version at some point.

Scenario has now been released onto the steam workshop. Click the link below to find it https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3210541042

Update 01/04/2024 I've created a gameplay demonstration video that I've linked in the main post and also here just as a proof of concept. I'm currently play testing and ironing things out. I'm linking the video here too

Update, 03/03/2024. I took a bit of a long hiatus however I intend to release this ........ soon The base features have been completed. I've cut some things out because I didn't have the time/experience to implement them such as the conversations and lore elements. Now I just need to polish this up a bit and do a full test and subsequent bug fixing exercise then this will be ready for release
